As a result of not being able to find any complete, detailed or concise list of all film movements on Letterboxd, I decided to make one my self. There are usually five important works for each film movement and are placed chronologically. Exceptions are some of the bigger waves.
*Read notes* is essential for more information about movements, directors and works.
„ A film movement is a wave of films usually following a particular trend in cinema of the time. Most trending movements in cinema are regional but influence world cinema. These films have cultural origins usually influenced by national tragedy, popular culture, or social issues. " [1]
Notable terms: The Seventh Art, Film Studies, Film Industry, World Cinema, Art Film, Experimental Film, Auteur.
